Looking through a bike magazine I found the Fuji Team for the incredible price of $1095...for a 16.8 lb bike! Needless to say I am taken. I was planing on the Trek 5200 but this weighs less and costs less than half what a new 5200 would run. So heres where the questions come, What are you opinions on this bike? Is the wheelset anygood (I am not to familiar with it)? I have done a search for previous threads and was thrilled to see that I'm not the only one to have found this deal. I remember that the bike was supposed to be shipped in September (as stated in the thread). Well now it says they will be shipped in Jan. on the site so I guess the sale will hang around or come back again in the spring when I will have had time to save up for it. I so wish I could buy it now but that's just not a possibility. This is just tooooooo good of a deal.
